I have FinMac 2007. For the life of me, I cannot find how to change the ruler display from epvu units into inches. I searched the OL manual, and found something through the shape designer box (which doesn't apply), and it seems to not to have a setting in document options.

I miss the old control that used to appear under the view menu, where you could quickly change all the displays in the file from epvu to inches to points.

That submenu is now at "Edit/Measurement Units"


Certainly a logical place to put the option to change something about how the program works.

Logical to whom, I'm not sure. But certainly logical to the person who put the ability to edit multi-measure rests under "Edit" along with the "Edit Measure Attributes" while leaving all the other stuff one can "edit" concerning measures under the "Measure" menu. Sort of like putting the "update layout" in the "utilities" menu instead of the "Page Layout" menu, where it used to be. There has to be a logic there somewhere.

In fact, since practically everything in the menus concerns something one can "edit," I'm not sure why they haven't done away with all the menus except "File" "Edit" "Window" and "Help." And be done with the nonsense of us trying to figure out why "update layout" is a utility and "Edit measure number regions" isn't either an "Edit" or a "Utility" but is rather a "Document" menu option. Actually, they should do away with "Edit" and just put everything which doesn't pertain to how the program works into the "Document" menu.

But as long as someone has found these things in their new locations before us, we're all set. :-)
